"...the subject which will be of most importance politically is Mass Psychology. ... The populace will not be allowed to know how its convictions were generated. ... As yet there is only one country which has succeeded in creating this politician’s paradise.” - Bertrand Russell, The Impact of Science on Society, 1960.

David Vitter Morally Outraged over ACORN's Relations with Prostitute

Perhaps American proles, who profess to be anti-fascist at heart, should stop falling for every cynical, hypocritical political ploy pulled by the far-right (ie., fascists) to destroy any and all opposition. ACORN is fighting for its life because a few employees saw nothing wrong with helping a prostitute - so did Jesus Christ (by the same reasoning, rescind the tax-exempt status of all evangelical organizations). And who should throw the first stone but Fox News, owned by Rupert Murdoch, a magnate who started out with an airline that specialized in heroin imports/exports. His business partner at the time was Peter Abeles, a MAFIA KINGPIN (and eminence gris for Peter Munk, GHW Bush and Adnan Khashoggi in Barrick Gold) who assisted the CIA in the start-up pf Nugan Hand Bank to launder heroin proceeds in Australia. Forget about investigating ACORN - investigate Rupert's involvement with the CIA {Mockingbird division) and run the vicious, fascist ferret out of the country for attempting a coup of lies against the current administration. And why is David "Dead Madam" Vitter even taken seriously by anyone? ... - AC

... Then there's the man who bills himself as "the Senate’s most outspoken critic of ACORN," Sen. David Vitter, R-Louisiana.

Vitter has introduced a bill that would deny any federal funds to the group, which bills itself as the nation's largest grassroots organization serving low-income and middle-income Americans.

"After months of beating the drum and continued news reports of criminal investigations, the president and his administration are finally starting to distance themselves from ACORN. The Census dropping ACORN as a partner is a good, common sense move. Now we must go one step further and support my simple and direct amendment, which declares that no federal funds should go ACORN,” said Vitter.

The Louisiana Democratic Party, however, points out a point of potential awkwardness for the senator -- the fake prostitution ring the young conservative journalists at BigGovernment.com talked about, versus the very real ones Vitter was accused of having frequented.

Vitter, as you may recall, was named by a New Orleans bordello Madame as a client of her prostitutes. In July 2007, Vitter apologized after his telephone number showed up in the phone records of Deborah Jeane Palfrey, the alleged DC Madame.

"This was a very serious sin in my past for which I am, of course, completely responsible," Vitter said.

Vitter did not vote on Monday.

“For months, David Vitter has been leading the charge to deny federal money to ACORN, but as soon as the topic of prostitution comes up, he doesn’t even show up to work,” said Louisiana Democratic Party Spokesman Kevin Franck.

Franck suggests, per a press release, that "Vitter may have skipped the vote to avoid calling attention to his own admission that he frequented prostitutes."

Vitter spokesman Joel Digrado says the senator missed his flight because of a scheduling error.

The Louisiana Republicam phoned other senators and urged them to support the amendment, Digrado said, adding that Vitter has forced three separate Senate votes on ACORN, including an amendment to the stimulus, an amendment to the National Service Bill and the cloture vote to overturn his hold of Census Bureau director Robert Groves.
